This One Of A Kind Fountain On The East Coast Transforms Each Time A Train Passes Under It

If you’ve ever taken the time to explore the wonderful city of Philadelphia, then you’ve most likely visited the popular Dilworth Park. The park is one that most people know for its famous landmark feature, a large fountain that you’ll find many visitors cooling off in during the summer months. Recently, the famous fountain received a new makeover with a permanent installation that the East Coast is loving. Take a look!

Created by artist Janet Echelman, Dilworth Park’s fountain now features the permanent art installation - Pulse. So, how does this art installation work? Any time a train passes underneath the fountain, LED lights and a four-foot-tall curtain of mist travels through the fountains. The mist is made up of filtered, softened water which makes it safe for everyone to play in. The element of water included in the installation is said to pay homage to the fact that Philadelphia had the country’s first citywide water system. To find out more about Pulse, click here.
